Detectives need your help

Investigators are looking for information on two April 12 robberies on the 600 block of Cecil Street.

The first happened at 10:40 p.m. when a man with a gun entered a house through an unlocked door and robbed two people of a laptop, two cell phones and cash.

Two minutes later, a Domino's Pizza delivery man, who had pulled into the driveway of the home, was approached by a man with a gun. The man demanded money from the delivery person before fleeing on foot.

The suspect in both cases is described as a black male with a light to medium complexion, 18 to 21 years old, 5 feet 7 inches to 5 feet 9 inches tall with a medium build. He was clean shaven and had two-inch twists or braids in his hair. He was wearing dark denim jeans, a dark-colored hooded sweatshirt and a navy or black baseball hat. 

Anyone with information is asked to contact Inv. A.M. Sterling at (919) 560-4415 ext. 29303 or CrimeStoppers, which pays cash for anonymous tips leading to arrest in felony cases, at (919) 683-1200.
